14."She goes to the movies with her friends!How come I can't go?"
"You love him more than me!"
"I wish I were an only child!"
Parents have heard them all when more than one child resides under their roof.Although siblings(兄弟姐妹) can be the closest of friends,it's rare to find a child who gets along perfectly with all of his or her siblings.
Kids aren't always the most rational of human beings----especially younger children.Sometimes,the smallest issue can turn into a major battle and strain a sibling relationship to the breaking point.
Attention.Children are always vying(競爭) for their parents'attention.The busier the parents are,the greater demand is for their attention and the less they can focus on each child.When there's a new baby,it can be hard for the other child (or children) to accept losing his or her position as the centre of attention.Sometimes the parents'attention is focused on a child who is sick or has special needs.Kids will act out and misbehave to get the attention they want if they feel like they're being ignored.
Sharing.Most homes don't have unlimited resources.That means all siblings will unavoidably have to share at least some of their things.Giving up a toy or other favorite possessions to a sibling can be especially hard on young children.
Unique personalities.Your oldest child might be the headstrong one while the youngest is quieter and more introverted.Differences in character can lead to clashes.Age and gender differences can also lead to sibling fighting.
Fairness problems.Children are like little lawyers,always askingfairness and equality and fighting for what they consider are their natural-born rights.A younger sibling might complain that her elder sister goes to a concert and she has to stay home,while the lder sister complains that she has to babysit her little sister instead of going out with her friends.Feeling of unfair treatment and sibling jealousy can lead to hate.
